Cultivation Tips
• Soil requirements: Plant in well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter. Incorporate compost before planting and avoid low areas where water may pool.

• Planting depth: Set plants so the crown sits just above the soil surface—not buried and not exposed.
• Spacing: Space plants about 12 inches apart with rows approximately 36 inches apart for good airflow and healthy growth.
• Watering: Water thoroughly after planting and maintain consistent moisture throughout the growing season. Mulching helps conserve moisture and suppress weeds.
